The only organized opposition occurred at the concentrated meeting which seems a little hard to understand since, from•: this observer's vantage point, that is the group that stands to gain the most from this plan in the beginning. Even that op- position did not appear to have a large number of supporters. Whole milk, cream and cheese have now given the provisional board and its plan practically unanimous support. It was inspiring to listen to the dean of Ontario's cream producers, 87 -year-old W. J. Wood of Alliston, throw his weight behind the proposal. He expresseed the feelings of a lot of milk producers in every group when he said it would be unwise to make any rash pro- mises or predictions about what this plan would do but it ought to be given a chance. As far as cream producers were concern- ed Mr. Wood felt the plan held the greatest promise. "Cream producers cannot lose," he said, "they can only go ahead!" Vice- chairman of the Cream Produc- ers Marketing Board, Glen Cole, of Bewdley, told the provincial meeting that "We must have an industry -wide plan and this is the best we can produce." (Mr. Cole is a member of the Pro- visional Board.) "On the basis of need," he continued, "I can- HEALTH .. To Enjoy Life MAPLE LEAF MILK Helps You! Why overdraw 'those , nervous re- -serves,?

This is an oppor- tunityto take a step ahead to do something constructive for the dairy industry.''•' Emerson Farnsworth, of Huntsville, a fluid producer who is chairman of the Provisional Board also pointed out the need for unity amongst 'producers: He told cream producers: "There is only one solution to the problems besetting the dairy industry, and that is to bring production more in line with domestic requirements. The time has come when we must think in terms of an industry. We cannot continue as four dif- ferent groups, going four differ- ent ways, competing with each other. This is a producer plan, there has to be no government dictation. It is not perfect, but we hope it can be made accept- able to all." The Provisional Board met last Thursday but did not an- nounce its next step. Now that it has reaction from the main dairy groups, from United Co - Operatives of Ontario, from the Federation of Agricuture and the Farmers' Union, the board should be able to decide where it is going. There has been no official government reaction to- ward the actual plan but Agri- culture Minister Stewart has said the industry needs a uni- fied marketing plan and while this one may not satisfy every- one concerned, it is a start—a step in the right direction. He also made it plain that this is a producer plan —department officials from both the dairy branch and marketing sections helped the producers with many of the technical and legal as- pects—but this is not a govern- ment plan: It seems to us that this plan should be kept '!out of politics" —both the internal type and the kind that elects governments. We have seen no evidence of any interference by the latter although ..there is some indica- tion that the • former is being played. As long as it is strictly a producer plan, there is little likelihood that the politicians, either provincial or federal, will involve themselves and we hope that the farm organization poli- ticians would be big enough not to use the plan as a stepping stone. • The Provisional Board should come out strongly and ask for support from all groups. Both the federation and union appar- ently can find little quarrel with the general principles of the plan. Why doesn't the' board. lay it pn the line? This Map, keting plan -is-big'ger tliati -any- thing ever attempted in Ontar- io and the board needs support from all people interested,in agriculture in getting the stry across to producers. Why not ask all farm organizations, agricultural representatives and dairy branch fieldmen, milk dis- tributors and processors to help give producers the details of the plan? LAWN WATERING Now that the hot weather is here, your lawn will require regularl watering if it is to stay in good condition. However, with water restrictions in many areas, it is important to make the best, possible use of the water that is available. Here are some tips from horticulturists with the Ontario Department of Agriculture, which will help you to do this. Insufficient watering can do more harm than good, so when you water your lawn be sure to give it a good soaking. Wa- ter has to penetrate several inches to be effective..:.

(Florence) Elliott) At an Ontario Federation of Agriculture Members' meeting held in Toronto July 12, 1962, a discussion on freer trade, pre- pared by C. R. Belyea, was pre- sent. Discussion followed in which Mr. Standing reviewed the situtaion which had develop- ed when two resolutions on Freer Trade had been passed at the Ontario Federation of Agri- culture Annual Meeting in Janu- ary, 1962, at which time Ontario delegates had been responsible for an amendment of the orig- inal resolution and deletion of several. other proposals. Mr. Standing referred to the posi- tion in which the OFA finds itself with some provinces fav- oring free trade, as in the West, and Ontario with more concern perhaps, than any other province in looking for some sort of pro- tection against imports. He re- marked that this is often the reason for embarrassment on the part of the national or- ganization in making presenta- tions to Government when on one hand• they seek protection for agricultural trade and on the other recommend free trade. He suggested Ontario could ,dot support a national policy of free trade, and we must bring to the attention of Government that many of our products are look- ing for some kind of import quota, :etc He said he 'did not know whether Ontario could take a stand somewhat aside from that of the CFA policy on this but it would appear we must, and in doing so we should not fear a minority opinion. Mr. Standing said the' Soya Bean Growers Board would ask the OFA -to consider this and see whether Ontario could take sep- arate action in ,the matter, Replying to Mr.. Standing, Mr. Tilden said that while we real- ize there cannot be free trade in a province such as Ontario, we feel in view of the present trend in our economy we must look at these matters on a national ba- sis and while there is mild em- barrassment in cases such as this in making presentations to. What kind of soil is good for riverweed? Stones. This curious herb at- taches itself firmly to stones in stream beds. It grows best in a bed of rocks in, running fresh water. The small dark green plant is abundant from New Brunswick to southeastern Ontario. Arnold STINNISSEN Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada Telephone: 852 R 12 R.R. 5 .
